It's limited in capability however, and with an under-powered processor, is liable to lag and freeze.Alcatel OneTouch Pixi 3 (4) review - The Alcatel OneTouch Pixi 3 (4) is a very cheap smartphone designed as a starter phone. Easy to use, with limited functionality, it offers a basic Android experience with social media and games ready installed. It also has the advantage of being very compact and extremely light. Don't expect to do too much with it, however.Alcatel OneTouch Pixi 3 (4.5) review - The OneTouch Pixi 3 (4.5) is the best of Alcatel's low-cost Pixi 3 family of budget smartphones. With a slim and lightweight, pocket-sized form, it gives you a good basic smartphone experience, with 4G support, a quad-core processor, and a good-sized screen. But it's underpowered for running serious apps, and suffers from poor battery life.
